Sweep/Control
Abort (Remote Command Only)
This command is used to stop the current measurement. It aborts the current measurement as quickly as
possible, resets the sweep and trigger systems, and puts the measurement into an "idle" state. If the
analyzer is in the process of aligning when ABORt is sent, the alignment finishes before the abort
function is performed. So ABORt does not abort an alignment.
If the analyzer is set for Continuous measurement, it sets up the measurement and initiates a new data
measurement sequence with a new data acquisition (sweep) taken once the trigger condition is met.
If the analyzer is set for Single measurement, it remains in the "idle" state until an :INIT:IMM command
is received.
Remote Command: [:SENSe]:SWEep:TZOom:POINts <integer>
[:SENSe]:SWEep:TZOom:POINts?
Example: SWE:TZO:POIN 5001
Dependencies: Only appears in the Trace Zoom View of the Swept SA measurement. If the
SCPI command is sent in other Views, gives an error.
Couplings: Zoom Points is coupled to Zoom Span and Sweep Points; if Zoom Span
changes, Zoom Points will change but Sweep Points will not; if Sweep Points
changes, Zoom Points will change but Zoom Span will not.
Zoom Span is directly coupled to Zoom Points; if Zoom Points changes,
Zoom Span will change but Sweep Points will not.
Preset: On entry to Trace Zoom, 10% of the number of points in the upper window.
State Saved: Saved in instrument state
Min: 1
Max: Number of points in top window
Initial S/W Revision: A.07.01
Remote Command: :ABORt
Example: :ABOR
Notes: If :INITiate:CONTinuous is ON, then a new continuous measurement will
start immediately; with sweep (data acquisition) occurring once the trigger
condition has been met.
If :INITiate:CONTinuous is OFF, then :INITiate:IMMediate is used to start a
single measurement; with sweep (data acquisition) occurring once the trigger
condition has been met.
Dependencies: For continuous measurement, ABORt is equivalent to the Restart key.
Not all measurements support the abort command.
